[Ducati] On the road again (I wish)

[Rich Roberts]

That I most certainly will do Peter. I think Maxine knows all too well how much this list, this group of friends has meant to me over the years as she looks over my shoulder and suggests that maybe I should shorten my posts or agrees with me. It is nice when she agrees with me. :) And yes, I fell good about the care she is receiving. And yes, I need that support from freinds, I do not know how to put into words the feeling of having your wife ask you if she is going to die and see the courage in the face of that all the while searching for the truth. It is hard. Rich

Awfully sorry to hear of Maxine's accident, have already prayed and will
continue to do so for her recovery. Now you are in the hot seat, for while
she will struggle bravely for her recovery, you are the one, just as my
lovely Sharon was, to agonize over her condition. Fortunately medical
technology is far advanced, and hopefully all the very best parts will come
together and make a great recovery possible. I also pray you have the
support to endure this test of spirit that you yourself will be going
through knowing you as a man of fine charactor and great strength. Read the
notes to Maxine, she will appreciate it as much as I did to hear the
wonderful list comments.

Peter

ps
Rich, the jacket I recently field tested was the new Aerostich Darian Lite,
much thinner than the one I bought from you years ago. That one had been
pretty well finished back in June when my son Marc wore it while employing
my previously lovely Monster S4 in a whack job of a doe.........on the same
bloody road I did my testing on :-)

old Aerostitch but it gives me some comfort to think that something like it
helped him.

prayers of the list this day. My wife was hit by a car riding her bicycle
home from work last night and is in intensive care, she is in a very bad
way. Though only on her bicycle she and I share many things including our
love for motorcycles. A vehicle mirror knocked her off and another vehicle
hit her on the ground. This is the love of my life and a strong woman but no
match for a car. We always worried about such things but she loved riding
and I could never tell her not to do something she loved. She has one
collpased lung, and they are worried about the other, broken ribs,
laceration, shoulder fractures, subdural hematoma etc etc...and last night
all she could do is apologize for being a problem and asked me 10 times to
take car of her kitties. if you believe in anything Pray Pray Pray. Please.
People think I am a tough guy, but I am not......she has so much life and
love and kindness in her, we can
> not lose her. Not just for me.... but for everyone she touches....please
say a prayer for your neighbor...for my wife today. thank you. Rich
